Northern California "Arc Storm" Is Just a Normal And Natural Occourance For This Area!! Doom Off With Evidence!!

Yes it will rain very hard, Yes it will be very windy, and there will be high seas and flooding, however this is relatively normal for this type of year in this region and all of you weathertards need to relax and realize this is just a powerful Storm train and nothing else! Here is a comparison picture of a very similar storm train that hit this area JUST LAST YEAR. [link to s18.postimage.org]

This storm pictured above happened also occurred in a drought situation and all i noticed last year from this storm was a few flooded streets and some gusty winds..I got over a foot of rain from that storm last year FYI

I was thinking the same thing. We had a series of storms inside of several days. If I remember right--it ran longer than this one is expected to. People flooded; there were problems, and I was concerned, mostly because I know the soil here saturates very quickly--but..thats about it. There was some damage; we rarely get through a winter without at least one mean storm, but..no one drowned; we all lived.

We've had flooding..even had to evacuate. Thats par for the course here.

Why does EVERYTHING on this site have to be the end of the world?

It is amazing how short the average attention span is on this site..pitiful! Everyone should exorcize caution in these areas because as I stated before this storm will pack a punch, but not even close to the magnitude of an "arc Storm" If this setup happened in January or February it would be a whole other story!

I remember saying that to a guy from Montana one time. But it just kept raining. The problem happens when the ground gets saturated. We ended up having some of the worst flooding I'd ever seen (40 years living in the Mother Lode area.) So we'll have to see what the cumulative affect is.
